- pasbesoin 11y agoI am generally for efficiency and conservation, but goodness, how I hate those things. I understand some models these days may have two flush modes of differing volumes -- I guess, for #1 and #2 respectively. Or for waif vs. lumberjack. Maybe those work better. But otherwise, those damned "low flow (volume)" toilets just end up too often taking extra flushes, none of which work very well, and keep one standing around as well as a plunger at the ready next to the unit. OR, you're the next person, after someone who doesn't take such care, and you find you have to hold it a bit longer while you deal with their lingering... "surprise".
- Rapzid 11y agoThe outflow in other countries is much bigger and you very infrequently end up with a clog. I knew a guy a ways back who moved from the UK and complained about the pipe sizes. Now I live in NZ and I can tell you, they are too small in the US!
- ars 11y ago> but goodness, how I hate those things I bought the TOTO CST743S from Amazon. It's low flow and works amazingly - much better than the full flow one it replaced.
- aedocw 11y agoI have toilets that use a pint (or less) per flush[1], and do not suffer from clogs or other issues. Part of the problem is the design of the toilet, where you need the water in the holding tank to "flush" everything past the elbow.
